Hi all,

Hi @Ubada Barmawar,

 

I tried the same video you mentioned and made a topic and I also faced the same issue. Turns out the topic block checks if catalog item is active and its availability for users. Go to your Catalog Item for VA in Maintain Items and check if Active is true. Also add Available for via Catalog Builder and test your VA Topic. It worked for me that way.

 

If you found my reply useful, please mark it as solution and helpful.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Ehab

Hi Ehab

 

yes you were right, the problem was with catalog item instead of VA flow. I was able to use OOB basic catalog item, and not the catalog item created by me. and we wont be able to use the same topic block for that.

 

thank you for your response as it solves the issue.
